Nikkatsu finally responds to Suzuki's growing discontentment by giving him a bigger budget and a better script. This episodic collection of "real coast guard action stories" was the perfect vehicle for Koji Wada. Whatever negative press he had received for Tokyo Knights was quickly forgotten.

Blood-Red Water in the Channel was directed by Seijun Suzuki.
Blood-Red Water in the Channel runs for 1h 25min, and was released in 1961.
